X-Men: Days of Future Past has released a new teaser clip and site called The Bent Bullet implicating Michael Fassbender’s Magneto in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

The timely promo comes after last week’s 50th anniversary of the president’s death on a road in Dallas, Texas.

It imagines an alternate history in which Magneto was convicted for bending Lee Harvey Oswald’s bullet into JFK’s path.

The clip goes on to question whether he really did commit the crime in the style of the case’s numerous conspiracy theories.

History is set to be a major focus in Bryan Singer’s upcoming movie, which switches between the actions of younger Magneto (Fassbender) and Professor X (James McAvoy) and their elder counterparts played by Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Patrick Stewart.
